Hi All,

I recently won a Lindbergh Red PC on Buyee. Buyee are being difficult this time and say they won't ship it internationally and will only ship to a Japanese address.

Is anyone offering a similar service like @Joko3 used to offer?

Ideally I'm looking for someone to remove the HDD, video card and keychip and ship them to me in Australia (and bin the rest), but I'm also happy to ship the entire thing.

Thanks!

One would think that's the entire premise of buyee.

Buyee will promise you anything until they receive it in warehouse. Despite giving weight and dims and pre-approved, I've been denied after receipt three times over the years.

I'm REALLY confused why they're denying just shipping a computer though, that's so odd.

My only thought is they noticed it has gambling software on it, which can be tricky in Japan.

yeah, we all know that gambling machines from the early 2000 are very demanded in most casinos. :D specially if it's just the computer without the cabinet and it's a lightweight Red Lindbergh
 
Never had any issues with buyee shipping anything to Europe. Including several lindberghs. Only light guns in had to contact them. Usually sea shipping is cheap.
 
Buyee just responded to my query:

Makes no sense you can't order circuit boards through them. Are there any other proxy sites?
 
I used to use shopping mall japan before they closed down. After that I actually tested every proxy bidding service out there and settled on dejapan. Mostly because I felt they packed better than other services. I've bought many items through them over the years and have been very pleased with the service. They also accept custom orders for places like GFRONT and Beep shop.
 
Buyee is so horrible! Their customer support is super annoying.

“We are pleased to inform you that we have thoroughly reviewed the contents of your package. However, we must bring to your attention that your package contains a prohibited item”

We are pleased to inform you that we will not ship it.

What is that? Ridiculous!
 
It must have been the gambling part that triggered it.
